Benefits of Participating in College Athletics

As a former college athlete and having worked in the intercollegiate athletic field for the past 20 years, I am frequently asked the following question. “What are the benefits of participating in college athletics?”   Simple enough question at face value, but at times it is hard to give a thorough answer.  Below is a link to an article from Higher Education News which  answers that question very well.  I hope you enjoy it.
